Flat Roofing in Stoke-On-Trent, Stoke-on-Trent

If your current roof uses old-fashioned torch-on felt, you've probably seen it start to bubble, crack, or peel at the edges over time. The main culprit is often 'ponding'—where water sits in pools because the roof hasn't been pitched correctly or the material has sagged. Once that water finds a tiny weakness in a seam, it’s only a matter of time before it's inside your house. We've spent years replacing these outdated systems with materials like GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber. Why? Because they don't have those vulnerable seams. It’s about giving you peace of mind so you don't have to worry every time a storm rolls over the Staffordshire Moorlands.

When we talk about GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) roofing, we're talking about a system that's as tough as a boat's hull. It’s a cold-applied liquid that cures into a single, continuous sheet over your roof. There are no joints, no seams, and absolutely nowhere for water to get in. It's incredibly popular for balconies and walkways because it’s tough enough to walk on and can be finished with a non-slip coating. If you want a roof that looks sharp and stays weatherproof for decades, GRP is a fantastic investment. We'll strip your old roof back to the rafters, install fresh OSB3 boards, and apply a finish that makes your home the smartest on the street.

For larger areas like a big garage or a modern kitchen extension, EPDM rubber is often the way to go. Imagine a giant, high-performance rubber mat custom-cut to fit your roof. Because it's a flexible membrane, it expands and contracts with the Stoke weather without ever cracking. It’s UV resistant too, so it won't perish under the summer sun. Most homeowners we speak to love EPDM because it's virtually maintenance-free. Once it's down, you can pretty much forget about it. We use high-quality kerb trims and professional flashings to ensure every edge is sealed tight, keeping the damp exactly where it belongs—outside.

Is your extension or conservatory always freezing in the winter and boiling in the summer? It might be because you have a 'cold roof' design. When we install a new flat roof, we often recommend a 'warm roof' setup. This involves placing high-quality insulation above the structural deck, trapping the heat inside your living space before it can escape. Not only does this make your room much more comfortable to live in year-round, but it can also help shave a bit off your energy bills. It’s a smart upgrade that adds real value to your home improvements, and we can manage the whole process from start to finish.
